Description

c/n B3-02-67 Built in 1968 for the Royal Navy with the British military serial XV352. She was transferred to the Royal Air Force in July 1972 and initially spent time with the Aeroplane & Armament Experimental Establishment (A&AEE) at Boscombe Down before being delivered to 208 Squadron at Honnington in March 1977. In 1983 she moved to RAF Lossiemouth where she served with 12 Squadron and 237 Operational Conversion Unit (237OCU), but during 1991 she took part in the first Gulf War where she flew 12 missions, was painted ‘Desert Pink’ and carried the name “Tamdu”. She was retired to StAthan in 1994 and broken up, with the nose being saved and arriving here for display during 1999. RAF Manston History Museum Manston, Kent, UK
